Any Python module in sys.path can be imported if the command line of the process triggering the coredump is Python and the first argument is -m in Apport before 2.19.2 function pythonmodulepath.

The VNC websocket frame decoder in QEMU allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a large (1) websocket payload or (2) HTTP headers section.
lxc-start in lxc before 1.0.8 and 1.1.x before 1.1.4 allows local container administrators to escape AppArmor confinement via a symlink attack on a (1) mount target or (2) bind mount source.
Moxilla Firefox allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy to read arbitrary files or gain privileges.
A vulnerability was discovered in OpenStack:
Title: S3Token TLS cert verification option not honored Reporter: Brant Knudson (IBM) Products: keystonemiddleware, python-keystoneclient Affects: versions up to 1.5.0 (keystonemiddleware), versions up to 0.11.2 (python-keystoneclient)
Description: Brant Knudson from IBM reported a vulnerability in keystonemiddleware (formerly shipped as python-keystoneclient). When the 'insecure' option is set in a S3Token paste configuration file its value is effectively ignored and instead assumed to be true. As a result certificate verification will be disabled, leaving TLS connections open to MITM attacks. Note that it's unusual to explicitly add this option and then set it to false, so the impact of this bug is thought to be limited. All versions of s3token middleware with TLS settings configured are affected by this flaw.

The MacReadPOSTResource function in base/ftobjs.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 proceeds with adding to length values without validating the original values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Mac font.
The ttcmap4validate function in sfnt/ttcmap.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 validates a certain length field before that field's value is completely calculated, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted cmap SFNT table.
The bdfparseglyphs function in bdf/bdflib.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 does not properly handle a missing ENDCHAR record, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted BDF font.
cff/cf2ft.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 does not validate the return values of point-allocation functions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted OTF font.
The ttsbitdecoderloadimage function in sfnt/ttsbit.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 does not properly check for an integer overflow, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted OpenType font.
cff/cf2intrp.c in the CFF CharString interpreter in FreeType before 2.5.4 proceeds with additional hints after the hint mask has been computed, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow) via a crafted OpenType font. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-2240.
The ttfaceloadhdmx function in truetype/ttpload.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 does not establish a minimum record size, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TrueType font.
type42/t42parse.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 does not consider that scanning can be incomplete without triggering an error, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Type42 font.
The ttfaceloadkern function in sfnt/ttkern.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 enforces an incorrect minimum table length, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted TrueType font.
The woffopenfont function in sfnt/sfobjs.c in FreeType before 2.5.4 proceeds with offset+length calculations without restricting length values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (integer overflow and heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted Web Open Font Format (WOFF) file.
nbd-server in Network Block Device (nbd) before 3.5 does not properly check IP addresses, which might allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via an IP address that has a partial match in the authfile configuration file.
